Living in North Kingstown, Rhode Island

What is North Kingstown, Rhode Island like? North Kingstown sits on the western shore of Narragansett Bay in northern Washington County, about 20 miles south of Providence. Its heart is the historic village of Wickford, whose harbor and colonial streets hold one of the largest collections of 18th-century homes in the country, while the Quonset business park and port anchor the town's north end.

For buyers it offers historic Wickford homes, bayfront and water-view properties, and a wide range of capes, ranches, and newer subdivisions. Below is a look at the villages, how property taxes work, and where the market stands now. For current prices and days on market, see the market snapshot near the top of this page. I know North Kingstown well from working with buyers and sellers here, and I'm happy to help in English or Spanish.

The Villages of North Kingstown

  • Wickford. A historic colonial village and harbor, with 18th- and 19th-century homes, shops, and a walkable downtown.
  • Saunderstown. A southern village on the bay near the Jamestown Bridge, birthplace of painter Gilbert Stuart.
  • Quonset & Davisville. The town's north-end port and business park, the origin of the Quonset hut.
  • Hamilton & Allenton. Older residential villages with mill history and single-family homes.
  • Lafayette & Slocum. Inland areas with farmhouses, newer subdivisions, and larger lots.

North Kingstown Property Taxes

Rhode Island communities set their property-tax rates every year, and the amount that applies to a given home depends on its assessed value and how the town classifies the property. Because the rate is reset annually, confirm the current North Kingstown figure and your property's classification with the North Kingstown Tax Assessor before relying on it.

I'm glad to walk through what the tax picture looks like for a specific address.
